![]() Instock shipping out in 2-3 days after payment is made!!! First things first. When you come out with a product it has to be a better design...and not be over priced or at a price no one can afford. Period. I'm introducing a new product very similar to the JMB fenderwell intake. Lets be blunt and list the flaws of this design- 1.Fender/bumper bulges out because of position of the air filter. Basicly the air filter is to long....but is actually very small measuring in at around 5 inches long. To get to the point it's a bad spot for an air filter.Also very hard to acess the filter for service. 2.The length of the pipe after the bend that the coupler goes on (TB Side) is too short. Therefore making it a bad angle to atach the intake to the TB with a coupler. 3. Fender hole cover- The hole that is in the plate that covers the hole in the fender is about 5 inches. The pipe is 4 inches. This causes a very irratating rattle while driving. The TDCRacing intake fixes all of these mentioned problems above. Fixed problem 1 by creating a 90* turndown therefore making the air filter VERY easy to change and bulging fender/bumper is gone.There is no straw sucking effect with the added length of pipe because of the size of the pipe to begin with. Fixed problem 2 by adding more length of pipe onto that side AFTER the bend. Fixed problem 3 by making the hole in the cover the same size as the pipe. Very simple Another thing is is that aftermarket intakes for our cars are way over priced. This is also a thing in the past with this intake.Also I provide options to you. For example if you just bought a 50 dollar k&n filter you can get my intake without a filter making it even cheaper.Plus you have 3 different filters to choose from. One for every budget. Price list and options. Intake- Includes the FWI,your choice of clamps and a silicone coupleralong with the cover plate -115.00+shipping Intake kit- Includes the FWI,your choice of clamps and a silicone coupler w/ filter and cover plate- 145.00+shipping with reuseable cotton gauze type cone filter. 165.00+shipping with k&n cone filter. * You choose from t-bolt style clamps or worm gear type clamps.All are stainless steel.You may combine them or mismatch them with your order. Although I recomend the worm type at the filter.No extra costs. *ALL FWI's include a lifetime waranty that does not include the filter. Covers the intake itself.Not paint or powder coating and all couplers and clamps. You get a new part for free and shipping to you is also free. *FWI's will be primed then painted free of charge any normal regular color you choose or can be left unpainted. Powder coating is 20 bucks extra. *Depending on location shipping is usually around 10-15 bucks Best of all all prices are without your 10% off being a GPF Member. LQ4 guys I have you covered!!-Email me TDCRacing@live.com is the paypal address and customer service email. So ANY questions feel free to contact me anytime. Would you regular talk to me on the phone? no problem shoot me an email with your number and i'll give you a call asap. There is a 20% restock fee for any cancled orders/Returned orders.This is to help recoupe some of the gas money and the time I took from my work day to build you one of these.The intake that i just made you may never get sold. Not doing it to make money or to try to rip people off just so that I won't go broke and can continue making these.This will not apply to damaged items that happened in shipping. Here is an example of what your filter looks like after 6 months of use with the JMB intake. ![]() And a comparison shot with the JMB. Last edited by TDCRacing; 12-10-2008 at 07:26 PM. |

| nice idea. good execution. im not too sure i would want or need this. i like short ram intakes more due to the better flow, im not concerned about the absolute coolest air from outside.

| Well, Shat! If I hadn't just spent 85+ on my own custom setup, I'd go for this for sure! It looks very nice, Parker!

| Will you accept JMB's on trade-in? LOL! Looks excellent. I do have a question though. I have been thinking of upgrading my ported L67 TB to an LS1 or N*. Can there be any provisions made for this swap? My JMB basicaly makes this impossible because of where the first bend is in it. Nice work TDC! |

What kind of provisions need to be made. I wasent aware of anything different on those except the Stand alone MAF. I have the LQ4 setup along with the ZZP 78 MM TB. If you are talking about the Stand alone MAF then yes I already have everything worked out. There will be an increase in price because of the 2 additional couplers and 2 additional clamps for the MAF |

That's what I needed to know. The stand alone MAF is my problem. If I had the setup on my car, it would hit the JMB in the first bend and I was concerned about getting it to fit right if I had to cut it down. Of course, I could have always just made a new FWI, but I loved the looks of the JMB so much it has delayed my switch to a different TB setup. Thanks for the info. |
